Rotation issues

clashcity · 11-06-2018, 05:47 PM

I have a 5 man rotation set to strict order and every few days the game seems to start someone out of the bullpen. Anyone else seeing this?

It has been reported. The workaround is to use "strict, occasionally highest-rested".

OK, cool. Thanks...

The strict setting needs a lot of micromanagement. Whenever you make changes to your rotation (or have the AI do it) you'll need to properly set your next starter.

Right, but once you have your rotation set and everyone is properly rested within that rotation, shouldn't the AI just start those 5 starters in a row over and over? Especially in a game without injuries it doesn't seem like it should take any micromanagement once you have your 5 properly set.

Yes, it should. And I tested it, and it does.

Just tried it again and went through the rotation perfectly twice. Not sure what I was doing wrong before. Thanks for the follow up...
